Lightly raced (one-eyed) 3yo off the mark on seasonal return in Fairyhouse fillies maiden last month, coming from some way back under today's rider over 7f; left with plenty to do over a mile at Navan on handicap debut; 2lb lower and remains unexposed. |

15th Apr 2026 Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Enjoyed a terrific spell last October, notching three wins and two places during a hectic spell; maintained his rate of improvement when beating 24 rivals in the Irish Lincoln on return; not as effective over an extended 1m2f in a Listed race at Naas; back to form quickly to take second in a 1m2f premier handicap at the Curragh; this is probably closer to his optimum trip. |

Enjoyed a terrific spell last October, notching three wins and two places during a hectic spell; maintained his rate of improvement when beating 24 rivals here in the Irish Lincoln on return; fine run came to an end in 10.5f Listed at Naas and he's probably better over shorter. |

22nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 1m 2f 125y |

Enjoyed a terrific spell last October, notching three wins and two places during a hectic spell; maintained his rate of improvement (from a handicap low of 62 to his present 98) when beating 24 rivals in last Sunday's Irish Lincoln; suited by the ground and the only runner with race-fitness; has to be taken seriously, although others have stronger claims at these weights. |

Flat winner on heavy ground; 0-4 over hurdles but some decent efforts all the same; proved she handles better ground when not too far away in fourth at Downpatrick in a rated novice hurdle last time (2m2f, good); can't be dismissed. |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Yielding 2m 1f 165y |

Flat winner on testing ground; 0-3 over hurdles, all three starts coming on heavy ground; not a bad run on second start in this sphere in a Hereford maiden (2m); rain would increase her chance. |

8th May 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 1f 133y |

Won a Galway maiden on second start for Joseph O'Brien in October 2024 but no joy since, although second to Flying Fortress in Listowel handicap; three runs over hurdles since joining Ado McGuinness before tame Curragh effort last time; new headgear combination tried and handicapper giving her a chance. |

10st 8lb |
Dual Flat winner; stand-out effort over hurdles when a 2.25l second of 15 off 93 at Sligo (2m2f, good) on penultimate; didn't build on that at Tramore on latest; capable of better but risks attached. |

Eight-time Flat winner (all turf wins on soft or worse); small signs of promise five hurdle runs; took third in a Musselburgh maiden hurdle in November (2m, good to soft) but last of 16 on handicap debut at Naas (2m, soft to heavy) when last seen in this sphere; recent Flat runs have been middling. |

Mudlark has been in and out this season; his last run at Tipperary was definitely an out when getting his ground but finishing 18l behind the winner; his run prior at Listowel was decent when a close fifth (8.5f, heavy); serious stamina concerns at this trip. |

Sole win in 26 Flat starts was over 1m1f in lower-grade contest here last August; that is possibly his optimum trip, although only beaten half-a-length over 10.5f on AW in December; after five months off, not a bad run at Roscommon lately. |
